Vocabulary Learning
⚡️ The 'Who Does What' Pattern
In this text, we see a very common way to describe a team or a person's action. Look at these two styles:
1. Action Now (ing)
- They are moving...
- Teams are starting...
2. Regular Facts (Simple)
- The coach wants...
- The team wants...
The A2 Secret: When you talk about a process happening right now (like training), use ARE + ING. When you talk about a goal or a general truth, use the S at the end of the action word (wants, has).
Quick Mapping:
- Right now → They are starting
- General goal → He wants
- Possession → They have
Word Swap (Vocabulary for Sport)
- Gym work → Training in a building
- New contract → A new legal agreement for money
- Practice games → Friendly matches (not for winning the trophy) Training matches
